Lyrics

[00:43.75] "o god of earth and altar,“
[00:47.11] bow down and hear our cry,
[00:50.41] our earthly rulers falter,
[00:53.63] our people drift and die,
[00:57.06] the walls of gold entomb us,
[01:00.14] the swords of scorn divide,
[01:03.33] take not thy thunder from us,
[01:06.86] but take away our pride."
[01:12.38] (g. k. chesterton; english hymnal)(g.k.
[01:18.45]
[02:24.97] just a babe in the black abyss,
[02:28.08] no reason for a place like this,
[02:31.75] the walls are cold and souls cry out in pain,
[02:38.70] an easy way for the blind to go,
[02:42.12] a clever path for the fools who know
[02:45.59] the secret of the hangman - the smile on his lips.
[02:53.41] the light of the blind - you'll see,
[02:57.61] the venom that tears my spine,
[03:01.81] the eyes of the nile are opening - you'll see.
[03:08.61]
[03:12.72] she came to me with a serpents kiss,
[03:16.03] as the eye of the sun rose on her lips,
[03:19.97] moonlight catches silver tears i cry,
[03:26.80] so we lay in the black embrace,
[03:30.10] and the seed is sown in a holy place
[03:33.53] and i watched, and i waited for the dawn.
[03:40.34]
[03:41.48] the light of the blind - you'll see,
[03:45.59] the venom that tears my spine,
[03:49.79] the eyes of the nile are opening - you'll see.
[03:58.34]
[05:59.39] bind all of us together,
[06:02.80] ablaze with hope and free,
[06:05.67] no storm or heavy weather
[06:08.61] will rock the boat you'll see.
[06:12.12] the time has come to close your eyes
[06:15.23] and still the wind and rain,
[06:18.03] for the one who will be king
[06:21.52] is the watcher in the ring,
[06:29.18] it is you.
[06:41.63] it is you.
